Chapter 287: Dragon King Banquet
The fifth day of the fifth month of May is the Dragon King Festival of Jinyang Lake.
People who live on the shore of Jinyang Lake will worship the Dragon King on this day and send various offerings to Jinyang Lake.
Melons, fruits, pears, peaches, pigs, cattle and sheep, and even more, there will be people who use boys and girls as sacrifices.
For the inhabitants around Jinyang Lake, the Dragon King is their heaven.
The dragon king was angry, and he didn't have to do anything but starve a large number of people to death without rain.
Not to mention those who beg for a living on the water, who dares to offend the Dragon King.
Of course, there are also people who don't believe in the Dragon King, but there is no way out for such people in the Jinyang Lake area.
Even if it is a government office, an official sacrifice is held on this day.
Jinyang Mansion is even more lively, there are dragon boat competitions during the day, and lantern boats will be put out at night.
The fifth day of the fifth month of May is also the most lively time in Jinyang Lake, even more lively than the New Year.
Yuan Hu stood in the sky and saw the incense burning on the shore of Jinyang Lake.
Women, children, and men almost all came to Jinyang Lake together.
In particular, tens of thousands of people gather around the lake for the officially organized festival, beating gongs and drums, and flying flags.
Led by officials, tens of thousands of people recited a congratulatory message to the Dragon King, which was also extremely spectacular.
In the center of Jinyang Lake, I don't know when a crystal archway more than ten zhang high was raised.
There are four big characters hanging on the archway: Jinyang Dragon Palace.
On both sides of the crystal archway, there are hundreds of heavily armed shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
This is a real shrimp soldier and crab general, but it is not very big, probably about the same as ordinary people. It's just a long half-human, half-weird, and it looks a little scary.
Standing at the front was a Yaksha, two feet tall, riding a huge fat-headed fish with a large iron fork in his hand. Majestic-looking.
From time to time, someone falls from the sky and hands it to the Yaksha with an invitation.
After the Yaksha checked the invitation, he let them in.
In the depths of the crystal archway, there are many maids carrying shells on their backs, who are specially responsible for welcoming and leading the way.
Not only cultivators, Yuan Hu also saw some ordinary young men coming by boat.
Yaksha doesn't care who the other person is, just look at the invitation. As long as there is an invitation, it will be released.
If you don't have an invitation, you will never be allowed to enter.
There are two guys who look like young boys, but there are no invitations, and there are foaming at the mouth and the Yaksha theory.
Yaksha was annoyed by what he said, so he lifted one in one hand and threw it directly dozens of feet away.
Yuan Hu couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to these two, they were mortals, even if they didn't die if they fell like this, they wouldn't be better.
Of course, Yuan Hu didn't have an invitation, he had been practicing in Tianyuan Hall for the past two months. The clones all stayed in Bizhu Peak honestly, just for fear of causing trouble.
With his current methods, stealing an invitation is as easy as a breeze.
Just, so why bother.
Although Yuan Ying is nothing, it is also relative to the entire nine-dimensional space.
On the ground of Jinyang Lake, Yuan Ying is already a great man. Even if he is a dragon king, he is just a spirit god, and he is at the same level as Yuanying.
Who is more powerful depends on the means of both sides.
Yuan Hu swept the dust and landed in front of the crystal archway.
When Yaksha saw Yuan Hu, his huge eyes were also shocked.
With his aesthetics, of course, he thinks that the fathead fish is more beautiful.
But he also had to admit that the little cultivator in front of him had a superb bearing, so he didn't dare to underestimate it.
"Who is here, do you have an invitation?" When Yaksha faced Yuan Hu, he naturally bowed his waist slightly, and his voice lowered a lot.
"Hara Mowgli. ”
Yuan Hu shook the dust and said, "There is no invitation." ”
Yaksha was stunned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment, "I can't let you in without an invitation." ”
"I have an appointment with Miss Yuli. ”
Yuan Hu smiled slightly: "You can go and ask Miss Yuli." ”
Yaksha was even harder, and he scratched the back of his bulging head, "This, this ......"
Today he is in charge of guarding the door, how dare he run around. Besides, he and Yuan Hu don't know each other, so why should they listen to him.
Just facing Yuan Hu, Yaksha instinctively felt a little weak-hearted, and didn't dare to say anything too hard.
There were people next to him, and several cultivators came together, and one of the male cultivators said, "Get out of the way without an invitation, don't get in the way." ”
This male cultivator is quite handsome, he should have just entered the foundation, and he was still a little jerky when flying. The figure is swaying and fluttering, a little unstable.
Well, it's like a new driver is just on the road.
Yuan Hu is not angry, the other party has an invitation, so let the other party come first.
He stepped back and said let the guy come first.
The man glanced at Yuan Hu proudly: "If you are doing this kind of casual cultivation, you will have nothing else to make a fuss." This is the Dragon Palace, not all cats and dogs can come. ”
The few people who were traveling with the man all laughed.
This group of them is all in a group, and when they saw Yuan Hu's peerless appearance with such a clear bone and a beautiful spirit, they naturally became vigilant.
Therefore, the man was extremely ridiculed and wanted to make Yuan Hu angry.
For no other reason, Yuan Hu's appearance is too stylish. If he wants to be the son-in-law of the Dragon King, I'm afraid that nothing will happen without them.
In the face of competitors, it is such a terrible competitor, of course, we must use all means to fight it.
Yuan Hu smiled slightly, and did not say anything to fight back. A few waste scum are not worth his scolding.
The man sneered, but Yuan Hu didn't respond, but smiled there. The man was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't dare to say anything more.
He reached into his arms to get the invitation, but his hand was empty. His face couldn't help but change.
He checked such an important invitation three times when he set off, and it was impossible to forget to bring it.
Just now, when Yaksha stopped Yuan Hu, he also touched the invitation.
How can the two-sentence effort, the invitation is gone.
This cultivator also reacted quickly, he glared at Yuan Hu and said, "You dare to steal my invitation?"
When several other people heard this, they all gathered around, and their faces were not good: "You dare to steal something, I don't know how the dead word is written!"
"What's the matter, dare to go against our plum blossom gate!"
"Hand over the invitation, or ......"
The invitation was sent to the plum blossom gate, and without the invitation, none of them could enter.
Hearing that the invitation was gone, everyone was in a hurry.
It's not that they all want to be the son-in-law of the Dragon King, but this kind of event is rare in a century, and it's easy to have an opportunity, how can they miss it.
Even if you go inside and drink two glasses of good wine, it can be worth two years of penance.
The Plum Blossom Sect is a small sect, and there are only a few hundred cultivators. The few foundation builders standing here are already the elites of the sect.
Yuan Hu still smiled and said nothing, he took the other party's invitation. The other party likes to be happy, so he adds a big block to the other party to see how happy he is.
This group of people shouted loudly, but no one dared to do it.
One is the gate of the Dragon King's Crystal Palace here, and it is a slap in the face of the Dragon King to do it here.
The second is that Yuan Hu is standing on the water, his posture is natural and relaxed, and he does not see the running power at all.
This person's cultivation is very strong at first glance, and he also has a pair of sword weapons on his back, which is likely to be sword cultivation.
The group of minor cultivators of the Plum Blossom Gate did not dare to do it.
Yaksha felt that the crowd was too noisy, and he couldn't help it: "Shut up for me......"
This voice was like thunder, scaring a few cultivators of the Plum Blossom Sect.
Everyone looked at Yaksha's huge two-foot-tall body, and then at the iron fork in his hand like a beam, and their hearts were even more empty.
A group of people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
At this time, water fell from the sky.
She saw Yuan Hu standing at the door, and a smile appeared on her cold face: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Daoyou." ”
"I haven't seen you in a long time. ”
After two months of not seeing water, this cultivator has obviously improved. The coldness between the eyebrows is even stronger.
The more this is the case, the warmer her faint smile becomes.
This smile also stunned several people in Meihuamen.
The famous water is as clear as water and as high as the moon, and he still laughs?
I can't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes. However, just by virtue of this man's appearance, the female cultivators in the world are afraid that they will not be able to control it when they see it.
Several cultivators looked at Yuan Hu who was smiling, and they all felt that Shui Wuyan's smile was deserved.
Shui Wuyu didn't care about a few passers-by, her attention was on Yuan Hu.
In fact, she came to the Dragon King Banquet this time to see if Yuan Hu would come.
Sure enough, when she met Yuan Hu here, she was naturally very happy.
She felt too happy to laugh again, she wanted to temper her sword heart with Yuan Hu, instead of falling in love with Yuan Hu.
Shui Wuyu hurriedly restrained his smile, and was afraid that the impoliteness with a cold face would make Yuan Hu misunderstand.
She said softly, "Why don't you go in?"
"There are no invitations. Yuan Hu said calmly.
"Oh, Yuli forgot. ”
Shui Wuyu said to Yasha, "This former Taoist friend is my friend and Miss Yuli's friend. ”
Yaksha is a little embarrassed, he knows Shui Wuyi, but Shui Wuyu doesn't seem to be able to lead people, it seems to be okay?
Yaksha's mind can't think of such a complicated thing. He was about to call someone to ask, when he saw Princess Yuli wearing a golden palace costume floating out of the gate.
Yuli saw Yuan Hu at a glance, even if he was standing beside Shui Wuyu, Yuan Hu was so dazzling.
Her eyes lit up as soon as she walked closer, and she bowed slightly: "Mr. Yuan arrived, but he couldn't meet him from afar, forgive his sins." ”
Yuan Hu turned sideways: "Miss Yuli is serious." Don't be surprised by uninvited guests. ”
Yuli smiled and said, "Mr. Yuan, Sister Shui, please come in." ”
A few cultivators of the Plum Blossom Gate watched Yuli enter the gate with Yuan Hu and Shui Wuyu.
A few people were envious and remorseful.
That Taoist is really not simple, the dragon girl came out to greet him in person, and she was so polite.
They just wanted to find trouble, and as a result, they couldn't even get through the gate.
Yaksha saw that Yuli was gone, so he waved the iron fork: "Leave quickly without an invitation, don't block the door." ”
The people of the plum blossom gate were helpless and could only avoid aside. A group of people began to complain that the man should not have taken the initiative to cause trouble.
The man was not convinced, and pleaded loudly. The more they talked, the more angry they became, and their faces were ugly, so they almost turned their faces and did something.
At this time, melodious music suddenly sounded in the sky.
A few people looked up and saw a four-horse white chariot drawn from the sky.
Around the chariot were soldiers with armor and knives, as well as maids holding long palace fans. There are also a few people who play the flute and play the piano and play music on a white cloud.
This style is like a royal travel.
A few people from the plum blossom gate looked stupid again.
It's just that the yaksha is a little stupid, and they don't have this pomp when the dragon king travels.
A maid walked up to the Yaksha and said arrogantly, "Xiao Ling and Xiao Gongzi of the Jiuyang Sect have arrived, and they haven't taken the car yet." ”
Yaksha's big blue eyes looked directly at the maid, and he was stunned for a moment before he asked in a rough voice, "What are you talking about?"
The Yaksha has a huge mouth and fangs, and it looks like it wants to eat people. The maid's frightened little face turned pale, and her legs and stomach trembled a little. I can't say anything arrogant.
A few Plum Blossom Sect cultivators looked at it and laughed on the side, and couldn't help but laugh evilly.
Unlucky people always want others to be more unlucky.
As soon as the curtain was raised on the chariot, Xiao Ling, who was wearing a red sun flying flame robe, had already arrived at the gate. He floated high above, looking down at the Yaksha and several Plum Blossom Sect cultivators.
"The maid of this son is also what you can laugh at and be presumptuous. ”
Xiao Ling flicked his sleeves, and ten thousand red golden lights shot out.
Before a few cultivators could react, they were pierced by a needle-like golden light. Before he could scream, he shattered and melted in the golden light, turning into a cloud of green smoke.
Yaksha was also startled, and clenched the iron fork in his hand to make a defensive gesture: "What are you doing?"
"Vulgar and impudent people, a little punishment. ”
Xiao Ling raised his head and said proudly to Yaksha, "Lead the way." ”
